Contact UsWhat Is Urodynamics?
Urodynamics refers to a set of tests that are performed to examine the bladder’s ability to retain and release urine completely. These tests focus on the lower urinary tract, which includes the bladder, urethra, and sphincter muscles. Urodynamic tests are also used to measure the flow of urine, nerve function, and bladder pressure. Dr. Shenelle Wilson may use one or more of these tests if you are experiencing issues with urinary incontinence. Some urodynamic tests offered at our Kennesaw, GA office are cystometry, electromyography, and uroflowmetry. To learn more about these tests, call Metro Atlanta Urology and Pelvic Health Center to schedule an appointment.
Why Is Urodynamics Performed?
Chronic illness, injury, aging, and pregnancy can cause problems in the urinary system. The bladder and urethral muscles weaken with age, increased pressure, and a decrease in estrogen. Weak muscles may cause trouble in emptying the bladder completely or more commonly, urinary incontinence. Reasons you might have urodynamic testing done may include:
- Frequent urination
- Involuntary release of urine, also called urinary incontinence
- Sudden, strong urges to urinate
- Painful urination
- Trouble emptying your bladder completely
- Recurrent urinary tract infections
- You are considering having surgery

I am thrilled about my new partnership with Dr. Wilson—she is truly an answer to prayer. I had concerns about a previous procedure, and during my visit with her, she provided exactly the clarity and care I needed. The appointment was incredibly candid, and unlike many doctor visits, it didn’t feel uncomfortable or rushed. Dr. Wilson took ample time to thoroughly answer all my questions and ensured I felt valued, never treating the visit as purely transactional because of my insurance. She also outlined a detailed roadmap for the future, giving me confidence and direction. Her bedside manner is as exceptional as her expertise, which was evident from the very beginning. Dr. Wilson wasted no time addressing my case and quickly set the wheels in motion on pending matters. I’m genuinely grateful to have connected with Dr. Wilson and her amazing staff. If you’re considering a new urologist, I highly recommend scheduling a visit with her—you’ll immediately notice the difference compared to others.
I had my first visit and I am extremely happy with the service I was provided. She educated me and we have a plan of action in place. Everyone was so nice, from the front desk to the doctor. It ended up being an enjoyable experience.
